Belts and tools...

So, the place I work at has a serious lack of tools for the employees to use to fix computers, since I wear a belt I figured I'd make it a utility belt... I've already got one of those multitool things, but I was wondering if there's a belt mounted magnetic screwdriver out there.... The COOLEST one would be one while clipped onto my belt would look like a pod of some kind, then by pushing a button would pop out the actual driver shaft, like those wicked awesome umbrellas out there....

Does this screwdriver exist, and where can I buy it?

There's a bunch of different patents for a push button release driver, or a spring loaded screwdriver, but I can't seem to locate the actual tool :(

    Not just a huge nerd, but a BATNERD! Wow. That's so monumentally dorky, if I saw you in the street with your utility belt I'd buy you a beer / mt dew. Does it exist? Not that I've ever seen, but this is kinda close.

    When I worked as a stagehand in Boston I would always swear by Setwear products. They also make mechanic gloves but I'd check them out. While not your Bat-screwdriver, I always had a pretty decent rig on me. Nothing sucks worse than having to climb down 30 ft because you forgot a tool. check them out.
